Grew up in S/W Schuylkill (56th & Paschall ave)
We played all the street games listed back in the 50’s and early 60’s. Hide and seek was referred to as “Ring up” wall ball was referred to on some corners as “chink” Loved them all!
We also nailed the broken bats, taped the ball playing Hard ball, Buck-Buck, baby in the air and alot of half ball in the summer and “two hand touch” in the winter. Great era and a great time!
They actually had “box ball leagues” in the summer at the Mitchell school yard at 56th and kingsessing ave!
